Mac Keyboards - built to fade and fail to type certain keys

I guess it isn't just very fast and very prolific writers who have this fucking problem with a Mac keyboard...

Perhaps it's a problem for ALL keyboards, not just Macs?

All I know is that it's a bit annoying to NOT see a few letters...like E and R anymore, and see the gradually fading A and S.

I've also had to proofread my entries to make sure the fucking F key has typed. It gets my ire inding that the ucking key isn't registering. (Did I mean ire or fire?)

That the keyboard itself is small and dinky is also less than appealing. For a company that prides itself on offering intelligent, quality products, Apple needs to rethink their ucking keyboard.

The solutions to the problem? You can buy (from Amazon, from a stationery shop etc.) little stick-ons to put over the keys. A less professional idea, which is listed below, is just take a ucking ine-tipped permanent ink pen and draw the missing letter. Not that this will help if a ucking key doesn't work unless you press it FUCKING HARD.

If you're a touch-typist, the "missing keys" don't matter too much. But the other ucking problem, when a key ails to work, is ar more likely to make you go the ucking Apple Store and challenge a ucking salesman to a ist-ight.
